Unemployment And Unemployability: Which Is Your Own Problem? Here Is A Challenge by CompuEsther: 12:21pm On Nov 07, 2013
HERE IS A CHALLENGE TO PROVE WHERE YOU BELONG

I am really inspired today. I am responding to some emails from my online audience in a program where I give career advice. These emails are really inspiring lots and lots of ideas in me. And, I can't think of a better place to share these insights but here on NL. I've just read a mail from a bloke who says he's an engineer and needs a job. Throughout his email, I could detect he is hardly serious in life or his IQ is far below average (judging from his very poor grammatical constructions, punctuation and general linguistic expression and foibles). I mean no one has it all, but there is a limit to what any employer can take. If I was looking for someone to employ, I'm sure this guy wouldn't have made the list forever. Does it sound like the reason many Nigerian graduates are unemployed? Well, answer that question yourself.

The super market is where you go to shop for products as the labor market is where you go to shop for competences. Do you ever enter a supermarket to buy what you are sure you don't need? In like manners, don't expect an employer to buy (sorry, employ) you if you can't show him/her you can be useful to him/her. Then, if you are able to prove you could be truly useful to an employer (like contributing in uplifting his company) he'd have no option except to employ you. Really, you are supposed to use your only as a means to pay yourself (and not to be paid by anyone whatsoever). And you should be the one to pay your employer for this.

In these days of the Internet, there are countless opportunities that prove that the real issue is NOT unemployment, but unemployability. They are opportunities in which you simply prove yourself on the job. Here, it's absolutely impossible to be a ghost worker (do they exist?). Here's my challenge to you, if you are sure you are employable (even if unemployed), visit www.igube.org, click on 'make money now' study the page, and you'd be making millions of naira in few months. If you can't do this, then you have to admit you are unemployable rather than unemployed. What's your take on this?

Well, a good analysis but I hope the site you provided is good and legitimate without unnecessary ambiguity or scam.
I will comment on this again after I might have logged in to the address you provided. Good analysis from you.
